Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 I agree about the DVD. It really won awards? I'd much rather have behind-the scenes documentaries, perhaps including those seen on TV, than a virtual "tour" of Hogwarts. And please, next time make the deleted scenes immediately accessible! It's irritating to have to hunt around and play games to find the scenes. Fortunately my 11 year old brother played around with it and found them before too long.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishCal24 0 Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Yeah Morn, you Aussies got screwed with the whole "no widescreen version" thing. What was the point of that? Hey Ocelot, can you get any details on the situation with the Chamber of Secrets score? You know, "who's composing what?" "how much will be JW's?" "is Williams writing just themes for Ross to adapt?" and so on. Or, have you already asked? And finally, for those who've yet to see it, a new promotional photo of Kenneth Branagh as Gilderoy Lockhart ROTFL Look at the painting behind him. It's a portrait of him painting a portrait of himself! How very like Lockhart. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 William, William, William, when will you pay attention?Each Harry Potter book takes place one year after the other.Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is Harry first year at HogwartsChamber of Secrets is year 2Prisoner of Azkaban is year 3Goblet of Fire is year 4Order of the Pheonix is year 5Prisoner of Azkaban starts filming in January 2003, because they are trying to make the films while the actors portraying Harry, Ron, and Hermione, are still the same age as the characters in the books.Hollywood may be evil, but in this case they are trying to strive for continuity, which in this case is a good thing.

ocelot 508 Posted September 5, 2002 Author Share Posted September 5, 2002 OK keep your fingers crossed. FIrst of all my friend loved some of the actors you guys threw out, and no, I can't ask him to be an extra in 3... Or can I???????? Maybe when I go and meet Heyman I can ask him.... besides, that's a long way away... what I am going to ask for though for now is to hear the current score being recorded ahead of time if at all possible and that way I will try and find out how much is who's work. BTW he loved the idea of Angelica Houston as Madan Maxim, and besides, she isn't English in the books so.... I so hope so. If that happens it would be my claim to faim in HP!!! I doubt it though.... 8O Now, everyone chant with me... OOOOOOHHHHHMMMM OOOOHHHHHHHMMMMM OOOOHHHHHHHMMMMMOhm raaa menemnim naaaaa Get Ocelot the HP2 score early ohm ra minemnim naaaa, *clink clink* (finger cymbals) and more chanting to the reincarnation of the high priest, Saga Lu.I'm chanting as we speak, Au Reservoir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afterall, you got your hands on the first score early too! You lucky sonofagun! Even if you can't be an extra in PoA, perhaps you'll get to visit the set. That'd be cool!

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 Just seems a little premature to me.Why?

Lurker 5 Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 From the IMDB:Radcliffe Growing Out Of Potter Role - LiterallyHarry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has resigned himself to growing out of the child wizard movie role - literally. The 13-year-old actor has finished filming the second installment of the adaptation of author J.K. Rowling's massively successful seven strong children's book series, but his voice has already broken and he's just had a growth spurt. He says, "In a couple of years, I might have changes so much that I look wrong for the part - even though Harry grows with the books. So I'm enjoying the fame while I can - after all, I might do these films and then disappear or something might go horribly wrong and I'll never act again."Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 As somebody in that BBC interview/docu with/about JKR said, most non-children books released these days are far more childish. They deal with questions like "is my bum too big", while Potter has actual themes and important issues.BTW, everyone who's seen Gremlins 2 - doesn't the Daniel Clamp character (played by John Glover) look and act a lot like Lockhart? And what's up with the rumours of Ewan McGregor being cast as Lupin? My cousin claims she's seen an interview with him on TV where he confirmed that?Marian - wondering.

IrishCal24 0 Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 This isn't exactly on the topic of casting, but I've either had a small revelation about the first film's score, or I've lost my mind. Last night, listening to The Planets, I realized that Williams seems to reference Mars, however loosely, when the centaur Firenze chases Voldemort from Harry in the forest. Now this, if intentional, would only have any kind of signifigance to those who've read the books, but it could be nice little nod to the centaurs little speeches about mars and astrology. Then again, maybe I'm just hearing things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks more like Legolas than Draco's dad.Exactly my first thought. Though looking at him again, he looks nearly exactly like Haldir (the Elf whom they meet when they enter Lothlorien).Harry looks a bit older...but he also looks a lot more serious. He was a bit flat in the first film, I think.Anyway, these are wonderful! As is the Planets reference....must watch the film again (how could they cut the forest music from the album).

IrishCal24 0 Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 If any of you would like a Chamber of Secrets wallpaper for your desktop, I put one together with Photoshop a couple of days ago using the promotional pictures from Warner Bros. It is an image of various key characters set against a backdrop of Riddle's diary and a birds-eye view painting of Hogwarts castle, with Chamber itself, seen through fog, at the bottom. I've also gave the upper half a transparent parchment-like overlay. Here is a sample image:You can download it in two sizes: 800x600 and 1024x768All I ask is that you please do not post the links elsewhere. They are hosted on the small amout of webspace included with the my internet service account. Any excess bandwidth usage could cause the price of my service to increase. If you want to pass it along via other means such as email, I don't mind a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
